SPECIFICATION forming part Of Letters Patent No. 659,021, dated cctober9,19%. Application filed September Zl, 1898- Beria1No-781j152- (150model.)

To all when it may concern.-

. Be it known that I, RUTH E. FULTON,'a citi- -zen of the United States,residing at Perry,

- in the county of Noble and Territory of Okla.-

homa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Door-Stops,ofwhich the following is a. specification.

:The object of my invention is to combine simplicity with efficiency andconvenience in operation, of whichthe following is a specification,reference being had to the accompanying, drawings, forming a partthereof,' in which- I Figure I is a front elevation of my doorstep asattached to a door. Fig. II is a. sectional side view on line a: a; ofFig. I. Figs. III and IV are perspective views.

Similar letters'refer to similar parts throughout the views.

In the carrying of my invention into practice I employ a pyramid-shapedbody-plate a, through which screws may be passed, to secure said plate ato the door. Against the plate a is a. reciprocating bolt b, providedwith a circular collar gof the same diameter as a. bolt-reciprocatingwheel 0, the latter having on its innerface and near its outer edge aprojecting annularirim h, that is placed in and operates in the collar 9on the bolt b. Said wheel 0 is pivoted eccentrically-by means of escrow01, being passed through an opening e in thowheel c and an opening f inthe bodyplate-a, near the summit of the latter, and

then into the door. The collar 9 is retained on the annular rim h by aguide-lugs and also by the collar g, being between the body-plate a Iand a flange j, forming the outer edge of the wheel 0. .By revolving thewheel 0 the bolt b maybe reciprocated up anddown through. 1

an opening k in a guide-loop alt t'hlegfiddiei its, "of the base of thebodypla,te a.' Said 'boltb has a half-roundbody, with its lowe'r endflat and smooth, so when the reqnired'arnonnt of friction is brought tobear against. the no or other surface it will not nar or screen; 1. thelatter. The bolt-reciprocatingwheeloer provided with a convenientoperating-crank Z, which is placed between vtwo stop-lugs and n,provided on the front of nutmeg; adapted to lhnit the mevemezitlofili'efyshel tic c in reciprocating the bolt 1). T'hef door ,i sretained open or partially open by the pres; sure of the lower end ofthe bolt b againsti the floor. Said bolt bis reciprocated'down',"
